We left at 9:00 this morning from Camping World. Drove to Amarillo, TX, to a park for lunch. As soon as we got out of the car, a crack of thunder boomed! Ben dropped to the grass! Phil & the kids played on the senior citizen excercise machines (well, they looked like playground equipment) while I made lunch. It started to rain a little, but not much.

We stopped at Braum's Ice Cream Shop for a treat in Elk City, OK. Yum!

We haven't had any bad weather so far. The kids are doing pretty well. They've gotten to watch 2 movies, even Phil has driven the whole 1600 miles. I've been in charge of the GPS, phones, computer, tire monitor, iTouch, DSi, camera downloading, etc. Wires and power outlets everywhere. We have to hide everything when we leave the car. Crazy!

Tonight we've got one more hour to go. We'll stop in Parkridge Campground just into Arkansas. Tomorrow we want to get all the way to Charlotte, NC, so we can relax and not drive for 2 days!
